Definitions

  • the present invention relates to novel long-acting prodrugs capable of undergoing chemical transformation in the body from an inactive into a bioactive form, said prodrugs bearing functional groups sensitive to mild basic conditions, more particularly fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl (Fmoc)- and fluorenylmethyl (Fm)-substituted prodrugs, and to pharmaceutical compositions comprising them.
  • drugs currently being used both in human therapy and veterinary can be classified according to various criteria.
  • drugs may be categorized as molecules having a proteinaceous-peptidic, i.e. composed of amino acid building units, or non-peptidic character, or by a criterion unrelated to the structure such as drugs absorbed orally or administered by other modes, i.e. injection, intranasal or topical, in order to reach the blood circulation.
  • Orally absorbed compounds are, in general, low molecular weight, rather stable, lipophilic ("oily") and of a non-peptidic nature.
  • Non-peptidic drugs are very often sufficiently hydrophobic and can reach the blood circulation through the gastrointestinal pathway. Due to their relative chemical stability, the non-peptidic drugs are usually long-living species.
  • Protein and peptide drugs have major and numerous clinical applications, e.g. insulin in the treatment of diabetes, gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) analogs in the therapy of prostate cancer, calcitonin in the treatment of bone-related disorders.
  • GnRH gonadotropin-releasing hormone
  • calcitonin in the treatment of bone-related disorders.
  • the potential for this most important family of molecules is vast, but has as yet been only partially, if not marginally, explored. This, to large extent, is due to their short life in the body and inconvenience of the mode of administration.
  • Non-peptidic drugs such as antibiotics, although relatively long-lived, have to be administered several times a day over a period of a week, or longer, to maintain the desired continuous circulating levels.
  • Oral absorption of drugs is a highly desirable goal in the treatment of human diseases, particularly in prolonged therapeutical treatments. Structural alteration of drugs may result in the augmentation of oral and topical absorption, biostability and, eventually, bioavailability.
  • Major efforts are currently being directed toward these goals.
  • Most approaches include drug modification in such way that its native architecture, i.e. bioactive structure, is preserved. This native structure is the one recognized specifically by the drug's target and is a prerequisite feature of the drug's potency.
  • the native structure is also recognized by the 'clearing machinery system', which is capable of binding the drug, degrading or metabolizing it and thus accelerates its disposal.
  • stabilization of the bioactive structure is often attempted concomitantly with the desire to enhance metabolic stability. Methods such as encapsulation, decreased solubility and chemical modification have been employed to achieve this goal.
  • prodrugs derived from drugs having free amino, carboxyl, hydroxyl and/or mercapto groups said prodrugs being essentially non-active biologically but being capable of spontaneous and slow conversion to the original active drug molecule in the body, following administration. It is still another object of the present invention to provide prodrugs that present higher metabolic stability and augmented bioavailability.
  • the present invention thus relates to novel prodrugs derivatized from a drug in which one or more groups of said drug molecule selected from the group comprising free amino, carboxyl, hydroxyl and/or mercapto, are substituted by functional groups sensitive to bases and removable under mild basic, e.g. physiological, conditions.
  • the new concept of the invention for slow-releasing drugs includes their derivatization into novel, generally more hydrophobic, drug derivatives.
  • this approach it is preferred to lose, rather than to preserve, the native conformation, the biological potency and the recognition identity of the drug by the degradative systems.
  • An advantage of this approach resides in the fact that the thus modified derivative can slowly and spontaneously hydrolyze back to the native active drug under the in vivo conditions.
  • the prodrugs of the invention are of the formula: X - Y wherein
  • Y is a moiety of a drug bearing at least one functional group selected from free amino, carboxyl, hydroxyl and/or mercapto, and
  • X is a radical selected from radicals of the formulas (i) to (iv):
  • Rl and R2 are each hydrogen, alkyl, alkoxy, alkoxyalkyl, aryl, alkaryl, aralkyl, halogen, nitro, sulfo, amino, ammonium, carboxyl, PO 3 H 2 , or OPO 3 H 2 ;
  • R3 and R4, the same or different, are each hydrogen, alkyl or aryl; and
  • A is a covalent bond when the radical is linked to a carboxyl or mercapto group of the drug Y, or A is OCO- when the radical is linked to an amino or hydroxyl group of Y.
  • Y is a moiety of any drug for human and veterinary use bearing at least one functional group selected from free amino, carboxyl, hydroxyl and/or mercapto, such as, but not being limited to, antidiabetic drugs, e.g. insulin; growth promoters, e.g. human growth hormone, bovine growth hormone ; antibiotics such as aminoglycosides, e.g. gentamicin, neomycin and streptomycin, ⁇ -lactams, such as penicillins, e.g. amoxicillin, ampicillin, piperacillin, and cephalosporins, e.g.

  • antineoplastic drugs e.g. daunorubicin, azacitidine, 6-mercaptopurine, interferons, interleukin-2, methotrexate, taxol and vinblastine
  • antiviral drugs e.g. acyclovir, ganciclovir, amantadine, interferons, AZT and ribavirin, etc.
  • drug according to the invention is intended to encompass also pheromones.
  • alkyl alkoxy, alkoxyalkyl, aryl, “alkaryl” and “aralkyl” in the definitions of K ⁇ t R2, R3 and R4 herein are used to denote alkyl radicals of 1-8, preferably 1-4 carbon atoms, e.g. methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl and butyl, and aryl radicals of 6-10 carbon atoms, e.g. phenyl and naphthyl.
  • halogen includes bromo, fluoro, chloro and iodo.
  • the functional group is the radical (i), wherein Rl, R2, R3 and R4 are hydrogen and A is OCO-, i.e. the well-known 9-fluorenyl- methoxycarbonyl (Fmoc) radical widely used in peptide synthesis for the temporary reversible protection of amino groups (for review, see L.A. Carpino, Ace. Chem. Res. (1987) 20,401- 407).
  • the Fmoc group is particularly suitable for peptide synthesis due to favorable synthetic manipulation for its introduction and removal, and preferential stability as a prerequisite for peptide synthesis and convenient purification.
  • the related 9-fluorenylmethyl (Fm) group is also applicable for reversible masking of carboxylic functions, e.g. of amino acids.
  • the resulting 9-fluorenylmethyl esters (Fm-esters) generate the parent free carboxylic functions following a ⁇ -elimination reaction pathway upon mild basic treatment, and thus can be similarly employed for reversible masking of carboxylic functions of drugs.
  • the Fmoc- group is of further potential similar use in the reversible protection of hydroxyl groups of tyrosine, serine and threonine.
  • radicals (i) to (iv) belong to a general family of rare chemical entities that undergo hydrolysis at neutral or slightly alkaline pH and mild conditions, and can therefore be used for temporary reversible protection of ⁇ - and ⁇ -amino groups, for example in peptide synthesis, and can be removed from the amino function by a ⁇ -elimination reaction, under mild basic conditions.

  • the present invention relates to prodrugs designed according to a novel concept for developing better routes of drug administration and consequent enhanced drug stability and bioactivity. According to the novel approach of the present invention, it is preferred to lose rather than to preserve the drug's native structure, biological potency and target-recognition capacity but, following application, the thus modified drug will spontaneously and slowly convert back in the body to the original active molecule.
  • prodrugs of the invention are designed to undergo spontaneous regeneration into the original drugs under in vivo physiological conditions and in a homogeneous fashion.
  • the wide spectrum of chemical procedures available for the production of the prodrugs of the invention allow to obtain a rapid or slow rate of reactivation as necessary.
  • prodrugs may be prepared with physical attributes such as decreased solubility and, therefore, a slower rate of s.c. absorption.
  • altering the hydrophobicity index of prodrugs, combined with the feature of spontaneous regeneration in blood circulation permits to convert orally nonabsorptive drugs into gastrointestinal permeable prodrugs.
  • the prodrugs according to the invention include modified drugs for use in humans and animals as well as modified insect pheromones.
  • the prodrug is modified insulin.
  • insulin is the predominant drug for diabetes mellitus, a group of syndromes characterized by hyperglycemia, altered metabolism of lipids, carbohydrates and proteins and an increased risk of complications from vascular diseases.
  • Most patients can be classified clinically as having either insulin- dependent (IDDM, Type I) or insulin-independent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM, Type II).
  • IDDM insulin-dependent
  • NIDDM insulin-independent diabetes mellitus
  • IDDM insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus
  • NIDDM insulin-independent diabetes mellitus
  • In the Western world about 90% of diabetic patients have Type II diabetes and most of the remainder have Type I. About 70% of Type II diabetics in the United States are also obese, a factor that contributes significantly to insulin resistance.
  • Type I diabetes there is an extensive and selective loss of pancreatic ⁇ -cells and a state of hypoinsulinemia.
  • ⁇ -cells By contrast there is no significant loss of ⁇ -cells from the islets in Type II diabetic patients, in which patients the mean plasma concentration of insulin over a 24-hour period is essentially normal or even elevated because of peripheral resistance to the action of the hormone. Nevertheless, individuals with Type II diabetes are relatively insulin deficient. This is because a normal pancreatic ⁇ -cell should be capable of secreting amounts of insulin that are considerably greater than normal when confronted with hyperglycemia, thus allowing an individual to maintain euglycemia in the face of moderate resistance to insulin .
  • diabetes mellitus Virtually all forms of diabetes mellitus are due to either a decrease in the circulatin ⁇ concentration of insulin (insulin deficiency) or a decrease in response of peripheral tissues to insulin (insulin resistance), in association with an excess of hormones with actions opposite to those of insulin (glucagon, growth hormone, cortisol, and catecholamines). These hormonal abnormalities lead to alterations in the metabolism of carbohydrates, lipids, ketones and amino acids.
  • the central feature of the syndrome is hyperglycemia. • The half-life of insulin in plasma is about 5-6 min. Degradation of insulin occurs primarily in liver and to a lesser extent in kidney and muscle. About 50% of the insulin that reaches the liver in the portal vein is destroyed and never reaches the general circulation.
  • Insulin is filtered by the renal glomeruli and is reabsorbed by the tubules which also degrade it. Proteolytic degradation of insulin in the liver is primarily receptor mediated. Following insulin receptor-binding the complex is intemalized into small vesicles termed endosomes where degradation is initiated. Some insulin is also delivered to lysosomes for degradation. In hepatocytes about 50% of internalized insulin is degraded.
  • Insulin is critical for the management of diabetes ketoacidosis, and important in the treatment of hyperglycemic non-ketonic coma, and in the perioperative management of both Type I and Type II diabetic patients.
  • Subcutaneous (s.c.) administration of insulin is the primary treatment for all Type I patients and most Type II diabetic patients who are not adequately controlled by diet and/or oral hypoglycemic agents. In all cases the goal is to normalize, not only blood glucose, but also all other aspects of the unbalanced metabolism resulting from hypoinsulinemia and hyperglycemia.
  • Long term treatment based primarily on s.c. administration of insulin does not mimic the normal rapid rise and decline of insulin secretion in response to injected nutrients, and possesses preferential peripheral rather than hepatic effects of insulin, but nevertheless considerable success has been achieved with this treatment.
  • Insulin preparations traditionally utilized for s.c. application are classified according to their duration of action into short, intermediate or long-acting insulins, and according to the species origin.
  • Human insulin is now widely available, and in theory, expected to be less immunogenic than porcine or bovine insulins as the last two differ from human insulin by one and three amino acids, respectively.
  • Preparations at neutral pH values are in general stable and permit storage for long periods of time at room temperature.
  • doses and concentrations of insulin are expressed in units (U), based on the amount required to induce normoglycemia in fasting rabbits.
  • Homogeneous preparations of insulin contain about 25 U/mg. Almost all commercial preparations of insulin are supplied in solution at a concentration of 100 U/ml.
  • Short or rapid-acting insulins are soluble preparations of crystalline zinc insulin dissolved in a neutral pH buffer, usually injected 30-45 minutes before meals. These preparations have the most rapid onset of action and the shortest duration.
  • NPH Insulin NPH stands for Neutral Protamine Hagedorn
  • Lente Insulin a suspension of insulin in acetate buffer modified by the addition of zinc chloride to minimize solubility of insulin.
  • Ultralente Insulin Long-acting insulins, such as Ultralente Insulin or extended zinc-insulin or protamine- zinc-insulin suspensions, are insulin preparations in which zinc, or zinc plus protamine, was added in excess in order to achieve insoluble preparations of insulin. They are suspensions of minute particles of zinc-insulin and differ only in the particle size which determines the duration of their action. Unlike regular insulin, Ultralente Insulins have a very slow onset and a prolonged (“flat”) peak of action. They advocate to provide a low basal concentration of insulin throughout the day, but their long half-life makes it difficult to determine the optimal dosage and several days of treatment are required before a steady-state concentration can be achieved. Bovine and porcine Ultralente Insulin have more prolonged course of action than does human Ultralente Insulin.

  • Adipocyte suspensions (3x10 * 5 cells/ml) were divided into plastic vials (0.5 ml per vial) and incubated for 60 min at 37°C under an atmosphere of carbogen with 0.2 mM [U- 14c]glucose, in either the absence or presence of insulin.

  • N-Fmoc-insulin derivatives Several features of the N-Fmoc-insulin derivatives of the present invention are summarized in Tables II and III. Solubility of the derivatives in aqueous solutions decreased with increased modification. N-(Fmoc) ⁇ -insulin are only slightly less soluble than native insulin whereas N-(Fmoc)3-insulin is about 20 fold less soluble than the native hormone. The biological potencies decreased as well with increased derivatization. Thus, mono, di and tri-N- Fmoc-insulins exhibit 40-80%), 2-9% and ⁇ 1% of the native insulin biological potency, respectively, as judged by [poly (Glu 4 Tyr)] phosphorylating assay.
  • the Fmoc-insulin derivatives exhibit much lower biological potencies.
  • Insulin-like potency was determined by both biological assays described in the experimental part.
  • N-(Fmoc)2- and N-(Fmoc)3 -insulins are expected to provide a low basal concentration of the hormone over prolonged periods. This may be primarily dictated by the rate of conversion of the inactive derivative into the active short-lived native hormone. Fortunately, the N-(Fmoc)2,3 -insulins exhibit slow rates of activation (as shown in Fig. 1). A rapid (sudden) rate (i.e. within minutes rather than hours) could have been resulted in hypoglycemic episodes
  • N- (Fmoc)2-insulin (being priori more active) is expected to have a faster onset of action following administration.
  • N-(Fmoc)2- and (N-Fmoc)3 -insulins can make the ideal formula for basal insulin release that is characterized by rapid onset and long duration of action, following a single administration, and constitutes one preferred embodiment of the invention.

  • N-(Fmoc)3 insulin was found to be highly resistant to proteolysis by a mixture of chymotrypsin and trypsin at pH 7.4. Proteolysis proceeded with t ⁇ /2 values of 0.5 and 7.5 hours for the native and N-(Fmoc)3 insulin, respectively.
  • Example 3 Effect of a single subcutaneous administration of Phe - Lys -N-fFmocb - and N-fFmoc.2 insulin to STZ-diabetic rats
  • the STZ rat is an excellent model for evaluating in vivo insulin therapy.
  • the rats are hypoinsulinemic (having 10-30% of the normal insulin level), hyperglycemic (>300 mg/dl; normal glucose level of control rats is 90-100 mg/dl), and catabolic. Visible external symptoms are 'sick' appearance and three to four fold increase in fluid intake and urine excretion.
  • Daily weight gain is decreased to 10-20% (0.3-0.8 g/day/rat) of the normal weight gain of control rats.
  • the pathological changes in tissues of STZ-rats are enormous.
  • Some of the more prominent biochemical alterations are decreased activity of key enzymes of glycogen metabolism, depletion in liver glycogen, a decrease in number of glucose transporters, in peripheral tissues, and an increase in insulin binding capacity that is not accompanied with an increase in responsiveness to insulin.
  • a convenient insulin therapy is the continuous administration of insulin (5 units/day/rat) over a period of one week. This treatment normalizes blood glucose levels, returns diabetic rats into anabolic state, and ameliorates many of the pathological effects induced by hyperglycemia and hypoinsulinemia.
  • a single administration of rapid-acting (regular) insulin is effective over a period of several hours only. Also, following termination of the seven day therapy protocol, hyperglycemia reoccurs within 24-30 hours.
  • N-(Fmoc)3-insulin has prolonged antidiabetic effect
  • Fig. 5 Each point represents the arithmetic mean ⁇ SEM of plasma glucose for 4 rats. Circulating glucose levels in Group B were significantly lower. Thus, glucose levels were 90-110 mg/dl lower in Group B, starting from day two following administration, and these lower glucose levels existed up to day six. On day seven, there was no significant difference between the two groups of rats in circulating glucose levels. The rats receiving N-(Fmoc)3 insulin had a 'healthier' appearance. Daily weight gains were nearly three times higher in Group B and amounted to 0.57 ⁇ 0.08 and 1.43 ⁇ 0.14 g/rat/day, in Groups A and B, respectively (not shown).
  • N-(Fmoc)3-insulin gave prolonged and satisfactory antidiabetic actions lasting over a period of four days (following a delayed onset of approximately two days).
  • This long-lasting effect in vivo may be explained by the ability of the derivative to escape receptor-mediated endocytosis and also by its resistance to proteolysis.
  • N-(Fmoc)3 insulin is largely insoluble in aqueous solutions.
  • the overall lasting effect may proceed by substitution of the old therapeutic principle, i.e. gradual dissolution of 'built-in' insoluble insulin, following subcutaneous administration together with the new principle, namely, circulating long-living covalently modified inactive insulin derivative, that is slowly converted into the native hormone.
  • this insulin derivative is inactive, larger doses can be administered with no fear of hypoglycemic episodes.
  • N-(Fmoc)2-insulin was as effective as the commercially available (insoluble) long- acting preparation. Rapid-acting (soluble) insulin is effective in lowering blood glucose levels in this experimental system over a period of several hours only (not shown). This preparation is fairly soluble in aqueous solution (at pH 7.4), a fact that may be advantageous over the insoluble N-(Fmoc)3-insulin, because suspensions cannot be accurately administered by s.c. injection.
  • the Fmoc group itself was modified in order to reduce F oc-insulin's hydrophobicity and consequently to increase its solubility in aqueous buffers, as well as to modify the rate of reconversion to insulin. This can be done by introducing polar or, preferably, charged groups into the fluorene ring, such as halogen, nitro, carboxyl, amino, ammonium, and sulfo groups. In electrophilic substitution reactions, fluorene is first attacked at the 2 position and, generally, the nature of the substituent at position 9 (e.g. CH2 ⁇ CO-OSu) has no effect on the orientation of the substitution.
  • the (2-sulfo)Fmoc groups were introduced into insulin by coupling of the active (2- sulfo)Fmoc-OSu ester to the amino groups of insulin. Reaction was carried out in aqueous buffers (pH 7.4) and excess reagent (-20 equiv). Following dialysis and lyophilization the product was turned to be water soluble. HPLC analysis showed predominance of one main product, apparently (Sulfmoc)2-insulin, as determined by mass-spectra (m/z 6411). When the reaction was carried out in acetonitrile/water, 1:1, the main product was (Sulfmoc)3-insulin, as determined by mass-spectra (m z 6713). (b) Time course of activation of (2-sulfo)Fmoc-insulin
  • the (Sulfmoc)2-insulin was fully reverted into the native hormone upon incubation at 37 °C for 36 hours at pH 8.5 (0.1 M NaHC03), or for 10 days at pH 7.4 (50 mM Hepes buffer) with t ⁇ /2 values of 12-15 hours and 6 days, respectively. This was proved by disappearance of the peak of the insulin derivative, along with the appearance of the peak of the native hormone, using analytical HPLC procedure. Note that hydrolysis of (Sulfmoc)2-insulin to the native hormone is faster as compared to the hydrolysis of (Fmoc)2-insulin (21 days at pH 7.4, 37 °C).
  • rate constant for the release of the Sulfmoc group from glycine was much higher than the Fmoc group (factor of about 30). Therefore, increase of solubility by introducing the Sulfmoc group into insulin, reciprocally decrease the long-lasting effect of this derivative.
  • the enhanced rate of the removal of the Sulfmoc group from insulin may be advantageous in certain applications of insulin administration such as intermediate preparations. Such preparations will obviously have the benefit of being completely soluble in aqueous buffers, in contrast to the available commercial preparations. Moreover, other groups, with diverse acidities or polarities can be introduced to the fluorene ring. Therefore, controlling of the type and number of groups introduced to the Fmoc group, can determine the degree of solubility and the rate of reactivation of the modified insulin.
